Best Answer

Fuses are rated in amps not watts. You just replace the fuse with one of the exact same amp rating as the one that blew. The fuse is protecting the wiring which you normally cannot change. For that reason you must use the correct rated fuse.

How replace the fuses in Infiniti qx4 2002?

It depends on what fuses you need to change. There are 3 compartments that have fuses and relays. one on each side of the engine under the hood, and one underneath the dash behind the change holder compartment under the steering wheel. There is a fuse pulling tool to take out fuses and only replace them with the same wattage. depending on if someone has used them, there should be spare fuses in the compartment under the dash. there is also a diagram on the bottom of the change compartment and on top of the covers under the hood.
